Year in review 2012Mobilising the community
At the heart of our Foundations is the belief that mobile communications technologies can address some of the world’s most pressing humanitarian challenges and our responsibility is to utilise our innovative mobile technology in mobilising social change and improving peoples lives.
2011 was the twentieth anniversary of the establishment of the first Vodafone Foundation, a programme which has developed into a unique network of 28 Vodafone Foundations across the markets in which Vodafone operates. Total donations for the year were £52.1 million which included £6.8 million towards Vodafone Foundations’ operating costs.
Foundation activity now centres on a Mobile for Good strategy – combining a privileged access to Vodafone networks, technology, customers and employees with its charitable giving, to empower people with the necessary tools to make a difference in the world.
